Norwich Jazz Festival presents National Youth Jazz Orchestra presents Abdullah Ibrahim TributePart of Norfolk & Norwich Festival
Please note that this is a ‘Norwich Arts Centre presents’ event at EPIC Studios, 112-114 Magdalen St, Norwich NR3 1JD.
The National Youth Jazz Orchestra (NYJO) present their new project celebrating the legacy of Abdullah Ibrahim and the sounds of South African township jazz. Township Jazz became a unique and powerful mix of traditional African rhythms, gospel harmonies, and the big-band energy of swing and bebop. It was both a celebration of cultural resilience and a protest against oppression, reflecting the struggles and hopes of Black South Africans.
Abdullah Ibrahim’s music embodies both joy and protest, blending Township Jazz with global influences.
